Categories: Filks and Rhymes, Slash, Star Wars

Rating: PG13.

Fandom/Spoilers: Star Wars: The Phantom Menace.

Summary: Qui-Gon/Obi-Wan. Filk. A poignant duet from an important scene in TPM: The Musical.

Disclaimer: George Lucas, Andrew Lloyd Webber, not me.

Qui-Gon:

All around is darkness,
A shining light appears. You're here.
Strong arms to hold me. Your soft words to console me.
Warm me with your smile now. Don't let me see your tears.
Embrace me where I'm lying, to ease me as I'm dying.

Obi-Wan:

Master, know that I have killed the Sith Lord.
Used the Force as you've instructed me.
Say you'll live and you'll direct me always.
Promise me we both will leave Naboo.
That's all I ask of you.

Qui-Gon:

Now my day is ending. I cannot conquer fate.
You're strong; none will reproach you.
The council will promote you.

Obi-Wan:

I only want to please you. I will not hesitate.
But without you beside me, to hold me and to guide me...

Qui-Gon:

You'll fulfil for me my tasks, my duties.
Ready to go on without me now.
Heed the prophecy -- the boy is Chosen.
Obi-Wan, there's one thing you must do. Train him.
That's all I ask of you.

Obi-Wan:

Say you'll come to me in shades, in dreaming.
Say I'll feel your presence close to me.
I accept the charge you've laid upon me.
Say you love me.

Qui-Gon:

You know I do.
Train him. That's all I ask of you.

[bridge]

Obi-Wan:

Anywhere I go...

Qui-Gon:

...I'll be there too.

Together:

Train him.
That's all I ask of you.

*Eees* I almost wasn't going to read this, because I didn't think it could possibly work with that song but this is hilarious :-) I'm going to print it out and pencil it over my sheet music =)

Wow. That is so great. Amazingly, I clicked on it because of the title, but then didn't get the connection for several "paragraphs". Then I had to go put the song on and sing along. :0)
I love Andrew Lloyd Weber, but guess that this wouldn't be as good if you didn't get the connection. So I pity those that don't know Phantom. Lol.
Great job, I have to bookmark this!:0)

Hilarious, slashy, workable, if I knew the song it would probably make me cry... You rock. ^_^

Helen @ December 30, 2004

Heehee.I need this put to music.

I'm SO glad I'm not the only one who thinks that a Star Wars: The Musical is inevitable.

This is awesome. So. Awesome. XD

Oh god, I just about died laughing.

"Promise me we both will leave Naboo.
That's all I ask of you."

Hehee, sorry. This is ridiculously good, and goes perfect with the song. XD

That was brill! I normally don't read things like this 'cause most people don't write words that fit, but this ones perfect. I'm going to have to listen to it again now...
